How To Install python3-pykdtree on Kali Linux

In this tutorial we learn how to install python3-pykdtree on Kali Linux. python3-pykdtree is Fast kd-tree implementation with OpenMP-enabled queries (Python 3 version)

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install python3-pykdtree on Kali Linux.

What is python3-pykdtree

python3-pykdtree is:

pykdtree is a kd-tree implementation for fast nearest neighbour search in Python. The aim is to be the fastest implementation around for common use cases (low dimensions and low number of neighbours) for both tree construction and queries.

The implementation is based on scipy.spatial.cKDTree and libANN by combining the best features from both and focus on implementation efficiency.

The interface is similar to that of scipy.spatial.cKDTree except only Euclidean distance measure is supported.

Queries are optionally multithreaded using OpenMP.

This is the Python 3 version of the package.
